Chapter 6: First Sight

In this way, if the real mastermind behind the scenes is not them, after Shocking Ma Xiang suddenly appeared in their mansion, the two of them naturally would not pay much attention.

But if they are the masterminds behind the scenes, after receiving the shocking horse incense, the two of them will more or less show some horses.

This has two advantages, one is that the other party will feel that someone has detected their conspiracy and will not dare to move himself again in a short time, and the other is that Li Jin, who is investigating the matter, can find out the truth as soon as possible according to the other party's exposed feet.

Thinking of this, the corners of Chu Mo's mouth were slightly hooked.

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report from outside the door.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Lord Zhao Yong, the Imperial Priest of the Kingdom, and Lord Liu Shu, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, ask to see Lord Liu!"

"Huh, what are they going to do?"

Chu Mo was a little puzzled.

The former prince offended many people, especially the literati, who were eager to eat his flesh and crush his bones.

The other party, how could he suddenly come to him?

The little eunuch hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, before you asked Your Majesty to find you a teacher, these two adults are both today's literary masters, and they are very knowledgeable, so your Majesty must have found them for you." ”

"Oh?"

Chu Mo suddenly became interested, he really needed to absorb some knowledge now, if he wanted to understand a world, he couldn't just rely on what he saw in books.

"Lead the way!"

Chu Mo saw that the little eunuch was quite excited, so he casually asked what his name was, and the little eunuch hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, the little one is called Sandezi." ”

"Sandeko?!"

Chu Mo was striding forward, and he almost didn't catch his breath when he heard the words, damn me, I am still Emperor Kangxi!

Walked quickly to the door, but saw two carriages parked in front of the mansion, Zhao Yong and Liu Shutong were chatting in a low voice, and when they saw Chu Mo and the little eunuch Sandezi coming out, they also pretended not to see it.

Hehe, interesting!

Chu Mo sneered in his heart, he didn't salute when he saw the prince, this teacher is so big!

Sandezi, who was standing next to him, showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, and stepped forward to remind: "Two adults, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down, why don't you hurry up and pay respects?"

However, Zhao Yong and Liu Shutong snorted coldly at Sandezi, and didn't even look at him, looking down on him as a eunuch from the bottom of their hearts.

If Li Jin came, they would still be afraid of three points, but a little eunuch like Sandezi really didn't pay attention to it.

Sandezi originally wanted to kill the prestige of the two of them, but he didn't want to be thrown off by them, so he had to shrink his head, and said to Chu Mo: "Your Highness, this is Lord Zhao Yong, and this is Lord Liu Shu and Lord Liu." ”

Chu Mo nodded, and said with a faint smile: "I recognize, I recognize, I have been ridden alone several times." ”

That Zhao Yong and Liu Shutong suddenly flushed their faces.

They were reluctant to come, but His Majesty personally spoke, so they had no choice but to respond to the matter.

I heard that this prince's temperament has changed greatly, so I want to see if this son can be taught.

But as soon as Chu Mo opened his mouth, he blew his beard and glared at these two literati who were proud of themselves.

"The two adults, even the crown prince, have to give the gift of the monarch and the minister first, and then the gift of the master and apprentice. You haven't become the prince yet, and if you don't pay homage when you see the prince, do you want to openly defy the royal law?"

At this moment, Li Jin, who was out, just arrived, and when he saw this scene, his face immediately sank.

His tone was very calm, but it gave people a sense of not being angry and arrogant.

When Zhao Yong and Liu Shu saw him coming, the two of them glanced at each other, so they had to reluctantly straighten up and bow to Chu Mo.

"Wechen meets His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"Wechen meets His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"No excuses!" Chu Mo replied with a sneer and a wave of his hand.

After a while, Chu Mocai said again: "Sandezi, what are you doing standing there stupidly, why don't you invite the two adults in?" Quickly order someone to prepare tea and snacks and entertain the two adults well." ”

"Yes. ”

Sandezi hurriedly answered, ran down from the door, and invited Zhao and Liu into the prince's mansion.

Seeing a few people entering, the smile on Chu Mo's face gradually converged: "It seems that Gu has to deal with it today...... By the way, why did Gonggong Li come back? The errand ordered by Gu was completed?"

Li Jin arched his hand: "Back to Your Highness, the old slave just went back and got a booklet, which recorded the information of all the personnel led by the crown prince's guard. You seeβ€”"

As he spoke, Li Jin took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to Chu Mo.

"Oh?"

Chu Mo took it and opened it, thinking that it was just a simple record of some names, places of origin, etc., but when he opened it, he found that there was not only a list on this booklet, but even a detailed description of everyone's preferences, previous merits, and crimes, as well as the situation at home.

After reading a few pages at random, Chu Mo was shocked, turned his head and asked, "Gonggong Li, you recorded this booklet?"

Li Jin arched his hand and smiled: "Your Highness asked the old slave to investigate the case of Shocking Ma Xiang, and these clues naturally cannot be released." ”

"Yes, yes!

Chu Mo smiled and patted Li Jin's shoulder appreciatively.

With this information, it is equivalent to holding the handle of the prince guard and leading everyone, plus going to the door one by one to "admonish", if you want to control these people, it will be much easier.

Although this is not a long-term solution, extraordinary measures can be taken in extraordinary times, and for the time being, it can only be like this.

"Damn, why do you feel a little like Jinyiwei?"

Chu Mo shook his head, walked into the hall quickly, put the book away, and asked, "Gonggong Li, what is the power of Zhao Yong and Liu Shu in the court?"

Li Jin followed behind him in small steps and replied: "As far as the slaves know, these Zhao Liu and the others are just two bookworms, they are only drunk on poetry and songs, and they are not familiar with the policies of governing the country and the country, so although the two of them are in high positions, they have never been appreciated by His Majesty. ”

"As for whether they have other forces in the court, His Highness can relax at this point. The two of them have little contact with the eldest prince and the fourth prince and their protΓ©gΓ©s, firstly, they are proud of themselves, they are rotten wood that does not enter oil and salt, and no one can pry them, and secondly, their talents are only in poetry and songs, but I am afraid that our two princes will not look down on them. ”

Speaking of this, Li Jin suddenly stepped forward and lowered his voice: "There is another point, this is a person selected by His Majesty, and it is naturally impossible to have his own henchmen in the court." It is even more impossible to make them henchmen of others, especially anti-princelings. ”

Chu Mo suddenly stopped, slowly turned his head, and said expressionlessly: "Gonggong Li, you have crossed the line! The holy will of the father and the emperor is also something that you can speculate on as a minion? ”

Li Jin was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The slave is guilty, and please punish His Highness!"

"There is no need for reprimand. Chu Mo frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Gonggong Li, you must know that Lonely's side is now full of dangers, and any sentence at any time may be used by someone with a heart, and at that time, even if you are an old minister of the Three Dynasties, Lone will not be able to protect you!

Li Jin looked up suddenly.

His Highness is not reproaching, but caring for himself?

In an instant, Li Jin was so moved that his head slammed to the ground.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the old slave will never say such rebellious words in the future, if you commit it again, let Your Highness punish it!"

Chu Mo nodded, stretched out his hand to help him up: "Let's go, presumably those two people in the hall are already waiting impatiently, go with Gu to meet these two adults." ”

After speaking, Chu Mo flicked his sleeves and strode towards the main hall.
